Welcome to the world of Silencer®automotive security. Silencer automotive security products have
been designed to provide the consumer with a product that is technologically superior, providing
years of trouble free operation.
This manual will provide reference for the operation and maintenance of your new Silencer vehicle
immobilizer system.
This system is an automatic device that will become armed every time you leave your vehicle. Once
armed, the Silencer vehicle immobilizer will prevent your vehicle's engine from operating, aiding in the
prevention of vehicle theft.
Take a moment to read this manual so you will be familiar with the operation of your new system.
Passive Arming
Once you have turned the ignition key to the "Off" position, the Silencer engine immobilizer will
become armed in 30 seconds. Upon arming, the device will emit 1 chirp sound to indicate it’s
"Armed". If you turn the ignition key back on before the 30 seconds has elapsed, the system will reset
and wait for the ignition key to be turned to the "Off" position again.
Note: This passive arming feature could qualify in some states for an insurance discount. Check with
your insurance agency.
When you return to your vehicle to start the engine, press the “Disarm” button on the 3-button
transmitter. When the system is disarmed, the device will emit 2 chirps to indicate it’s "Disarmed".
Manual Disarm – 3-Button Transmitter
Manual Disarm – 1-Button Transmitter
When you return to your vehicle to start the engine, press the button on the transmitter. When the
system is disarmed, the device will emit 2 chirps to indicate it’s "Disarmed".

Each time the system is disarmed using the transmitter, the device will begin a protection mode
countdown. This is a timed secondary protection mode to insure the RF signal that disarmed the
system came from your transmitter. If you do not start your vehicle within the 60 second timer
countdown, your Silencer system will become rearmed and your engine will be disabled.
RF Protection Mode
Emergency Override
There may come a time when it will be necessary to manually disarm your Silencer system without
using your transmitter. This condition occurs if the battery in your transmitter is low, dead or if your
transmitter becomes damaged or lost. In these circumstances, it will be necessary to use your ignition
key to perform an emergency override procedure to get your vehicle operational. Follow this procedure
to manually override your system:
1. Turn on the ignition key for 10 seconds then turn it off.
2. Wait for 10 seconds.
3. Turn on the ignition key for 10 seconds then turn it off.
4. Wait for 10 seconds
5. Turn on the ignition key and the vehicle will start.
The only maintenance that your Silencer engine immobilizer requires is a periodic check to insure that
all operations are functioning normally. This is also good practice for you to refresh your memory on
“Emergency Override” and “Valet Mode” procedures.
System Maintenance
The batteries supplied with yourremote controls should last over 1 year. Heavy transmitter usage will
shorten battery life. Reduced transmitter range is usually a indication that the batteries are becoming
weak and should be replaced. Transmitters that are not in use should have the batteries removed.

(Only applies if you have a 3-button transmitter)
The valet mode allows you to temporarily turn off the passive arming function, eliminating the need to
give your transmitter to a parking attendant or garage mechanic.
To enter the valet mode, follow this procedure:
1. Press the disarm button on your transmitter to insure the device is disarmed (you will hear 2
beeps from the device).
2. Within 3 seconds of pressing the disarm button, press and release the “Valet On” button 3 times
slowly. The device will emit 3 long beeps to indicate the valet mode "On" condition.
To exit the valet mode, follow this procedure:
1. Press the "Disarm" button on your transmitter (you will not hear any sound).
2. Within 3 seconds of pressing the disarm button, press and release the “Valet Off” button 3 times
slowly. The device will emit 1 long beep to indicate the valet mode is "Off".
